"It's a String Thing" #289

It's Tuesday, your good news day!

I trust everyone had a joyous Easter time and thank you all for your beautiful tiles for IAST #288.
The notes and tiles will be posted tomorrow as our family celebrations carried over into this week 😊

Today is the very last day of the month of April.  Most of you will be reading this on the very first day of May.  Since May Day is a festive date, and "April showers bring May flowers" let us begin with a string inspired by my flowery tangle, Mel Mel ~

IAST #289 String by Adele Bruno, CZT

The tangles we will use include ~

ONE OR TWO OF YOUR FAVORITE tangles along with...

Rain by Maria Thomas
This tangle is very fun to draw, can be worked into any space, used along a single line or stacked, and  can be finished as light or as bold as you prefer. 
Besides, where would flowers be without the rain?!

Happy May Day everyone!  I look forward to your emails.
